Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Calcium carbide reacts with water to yield acetylene gas and calcium hydroxide as follows;

CaC2(s)+2H2O(g)⇋Ca(OH)2(s)+C2H2(g)

This now shows us that the equation as written in the question is wrong. Since the equation for the reaction of calcium carbide and water as shown in the question is wrong, the equation can not be balanced.

Light elements with an atomic number less than 20 generally have a neutron to proton ratio equal to
Natalija [7]
Atomic elements consist of a nucleus that contains protons and neutrons. Protons carry a positive charge whilst neutrons are electrically neutral. In light elements with an atomic number less than 20, the neutron to proton ratio is generally equal to 1:1. This changes for heavier elements since the Coulomb interaction between many protons gets stronger and demands more neutrons for the nucleus to remain stable.

How much energy (joules) is needed to heat 250 grams of copper from 22 °C to 99 °C? The specific heat capacity (C) of copper is
Naddik [55]

Answer:

7430.5 Joules (7.4*10^4 Joules)

Explanation:

Q=mc∆T

where Q is energy in Joules.

Now m=250 g

c= 0.386 J/g°C

∆T = 99 - 22 = 77 °C

plugging the values in gives

Q=250*0.386*77=7430.5 Joules

(7.4*10^4 Joules, if 2 significant figures)
